To add support for the lab DNS naming please follow this guide to add the DNS server (192.168.248.15) to your network adapter settings on Windows.
You should then be able to call devices by their set names on the lab network
After doing this I am now able to use the DNS name to call on my scope, ping it, and use within python frameworks
Be sure to stick a label of the assigned host name onto the device (you can also add its IP as well if you want).
This goes for computers, scopes, gpib and network serial converters and so on.
